He invented bifocals, edited a newspaper and got himself on the hundred dollar bill. We still think his whole "flying a kite in the middle of a thunderstorm" idea might not have been the best idea ever, since that could have really turned out badly, but he's a genius, so who are we to argue? This costume makes your kid look just like the legendary figure. We can't guarantee that while wearing it, he'll be inventing the glass armonica like the real Benjamin Franklin, but he will look cooler than the other kids at the next American history pageant that your child is in, and we think that's just as important as the invention of the glass armonica. - Jacket w/ Attached Vest - Cravat - Knicker Pants ## Features - Costume Includes: Jacket with attached Vest, Cravat, Knicker Pants - Child: L (10-12) Chest 30" Waist 26" Hips 32" Height 58" up to 90 lbs. - Jacket and combined vest - Jacket and vest are button down - Cravat necktie - Knicker pants with elastic waistband ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00IPKVU5G | | ASIN | B00K0TLWJE | | Age Range Description | Little Kid | | Apparel Fabric Stretch | No Stretch | | Apparel Fabric Weight Class | Lightweight | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,146,613 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ( See Top 100 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ) #2,890 in Boys' Costumes | | Brand Name | California Costumes | | Closure Type | Button | | Color | Brown/Tan/Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (862) | | Date First Available | March 27, 2014 | | Department | boys | | Fabric Type | 100% Polyester | | Fit Type | regular | | Fit to Size Sentiment | Positive | | Garment Size Country | United States | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00019519084302 | | Included Components | Cravat, Jacket with Attached Vest, Knicker Pants | | Item Type Name | Child Costume | | Item Weight | 0.42 kg | | Item model number | 00435 | | Manufacturer | California Costumes | | Manufacturer | California Costumes | | Manufacturer recommended age | 14 years and up | | Material | Polyester | | Neck Style | Round Neck | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Occasion | scholastic | | Package Dimensions | 13 x 10 x 2 inches | | Part Number | 00435 L | | Pattern | Solid | | Product Care Instructions | Spot Clean Only | | Size | Large | | Sleeve Length Description | Short Sleeve | | Special Features | Wrinkle Resistant | | Special Sizes | Standard | | Style Name | Colonial Man / Benjamin Franklin | | Style Number | 00435 L | | Target Audience | Boys | | Theme | Historical | | UPC | 019519084302 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | No Warranty | | character | historical_&_period | ## Images ![Boys Benjamin Franklin Costume - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31gqhq-LGpL.jpg) ![Boys Benjamin Franklin Costume - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41zNmSrg04L.jpg) ![Boys Benjamin Franklin Costume - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31kfdzSnG-L.jpg) ![Boys Benjamin Franklin Costume - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41mZZ8QAq+L.jpg) ![Boys Benjamin Franklin Costume - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41sDX4hwU2L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: My son wears a size 10 I can't find a size chart what size do you suggest?** A: I think a large will do. My son was a size 8, and I bought the medium and it fit home perfectly. So a Large size would be good for you. The issue is with the jacket fitting (since it's a more tapered look) - not the pants. **Q: My son wears a size 10/12 and his weight is 76 lb what size should I buy because I am little confused b/w 8/10 and 10/12 and he’s 4ft 4 inch** A: Hi, Costumes, are not street-clothes, and are not sized the same. One has to go by, the measurements offered, from each and every manufacturer. Medium 8-10 29" 25" 30" 58" up to 80 lbs. **Q: can you take off the coat?** A: The coat is attached to the vest. **Q: Is there a size chart for these? I am trying to figure out the right size for my son.** A: My son is in 5th grade 5 foot 130lbs. He wears a 16/18 xxl. The xl in this was a little snug but worked out fine. We put white under shirt on. This costume is so cute and the wig is hilarious. ## Frequently Bought Together - Boys Benjamin Franklin Costume - 4E's Novelty Gold Metal Round Glasses, Fake Non Prescription for Kids, Gold Rimmed Circle Halloween Costume Glasses for Boys & Girls Old Man Lady Dress Up Granny Accessories - Skeleteen Colonial White Costume Socks - Knee High White Knit Colonial Costume Dress Socks for Adults and Children --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/7898858-boys-benjamin-franklin-costume](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/7898858-boys-benjamin-franklin-costume) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-09-02*
